Pointless thoughts of the day

Here's my pointless thought of the day: why does it feel so good to let out a breath and make an "ahhhh" noise after quickly drinking a refreshing beverage?

To think I used to pester my parents and older siblings with questions like this all day long when I was a kid. I remember learning the definition of inquisitive at a very young age. My older brother said something like, "Why do you always have to be so inquisitive?" Since I was used to him calling me names like "rump steak", I figured inquisitive must be some sort of insulting term I hadn't yet learned...

Nowadays, I suppose all the inquisitive kids can just use Google to find out anything they want to know. I wonder if I would have turned out any different if I had the Internet when I was a kid...
